Are Atheist The Dumbest Folks Ever? by Oluwaseytiano(m): 9:36pm On Sep 27, 2013 |
Thanks to a couple of survey, it is being put about in certain circles that atheist have higher IQ than believers. That may or may not be the case, but let us look at the actual life of atheists and believers and see who is living more intelligently. And guess what it is the believers. A vast body of research, amassed over recent decades, shows that religious believe is physically and pyschologically beneficial to a remarkable degree. In 2006 population researchers at the university of texas discovered that the more often you go to church the longer you live. In the last few years scientest have also discovered that believers have better outcome from breast cancer, aids, coronary diseases and even IVF. Likewise believers also report greater level of happiness, are less likely to commit suicide, cope with stressful events much better and even have more kids. And whats more visible is the fact that religious people are less likely to smoke, drink or do drugs. So which is the smarter party? The atheist who live short, selfish and stunted lives- before they approah hopeless death in despair and the corpse are chucked in a trench (or if they are wrong, they go to hell). Or is it the believers who live longer, happier lives, have more kids and who go to their death expecting to be greeted by a smiling and benovelent God? Obviously it is the believers that are smarter and anyone who thinks otherwise is mentally ill. Science is showing that the human mind is hard wired for faith. Therefore being an atheist- lacking the vital faculty of faith- should be seen as an afflicition, and a tragic deficiency: something akin to being blind. #SEYTIANO. 1 Like |

Dictionary meaning- Dumbest:-'Taking more than usual time to learn or understand; lacking intellectual acuity'. e.g not being able to use your brain and think, always relying on books written thousands of yrs ago by middle eastern cave-men. sitting like morons in a confide place listening to another man who tells you what god said, then convinces you to allocate 10% of your income to his ministry so that the same god will bless you. do the maths... 3 Likes |

Op, how smart is a person who calls another group selfish, then goes on to state said group is dumb because they do not selfishly extend their lives by grovelling at the feet of a tyrannical psychopathic god? That this selfish group is dumb because they do not take up Pascal's wager? It might take a while, but settle down slowlllllyyy and think about it 1 Like |

Think about it, me believing in God has no ill end. The worst case scenario if God does not exist(highly unlikely) is i and other believers become objects of ridicle. But if we are right and God exists, then i can positively say woe betide you. |
